if you release a .deb that installs cleanly on stock debian stable I will kiss you sweetly while whispering words of affirmation into your ears

@aphyr this is one reason i tend to like Go projects more than i like the Go language: the deployment artifact is often one (1) statically linked binary. put it wherever.

@aphyr does it need to do anything or will any package do? 😆

@aphyr Build for Debian, test on all the Debian offshoots ❤️

@aphyr I'm planning to but it'll have to be on debian testing for now because the stable gtk and adwaita are too old 😅

@mkhl this is allowable and only slightly less divine :D

I was the sysadmin responsible for containerized cloud orchestration platforms at my job in 2003, back when it was called Apache Tomcat (TM)

@aphyr You joke but I have repeatedly observed that projects like knative appear _determined_ to reinvent Java EE/DCOM, which in turn reinvented CORBA, which in turn…

@owen oh no I'm 100% on board with this critique haha

@aphyr @owen BINGO.

People often complain about how terrible working with CORBA is; but, the reality is it's no worse than working with Xlib.

You know what people did with Xlib? They didn't throw X11 out; no, they wrote XCB to replace Xlib.

So why would anyone throw away CORBA? They should have replaced the typical ORB architecture with a new IIOP binding. I guess people just didn't think of it back then.

@aphyr The main evolution appears to be what concerns get placed on either side of the developer/administrator line, and honestly, there is some useful insight into changes in organizational norms there.

@pfriedma psychic splash damage to every admin over 35 😆
